Local know-how
What we see in Wheat Ridge yards
Mature trees are a big part of the character of Wheat Ridge, and many lots here are larger than in other inner suburbs. Big cottonwoods, elms and maples line the older streets and the land near Clear Creek. Trees that size need regular inspection, because a single failed limb can damage a roof, a car or a fence.
Emerald ash borer was first detected in Wheat Ridge in 2025. Ash trees are common in yards and along streets here. A healthy, well-placed ash can be protected with trunk injections every 2 to 3 years, while small or declining ash are usually better replaced. We look at each tree and tell you which we think makes sense.
Many homes here have overhead lines running through the trees along the back of the lot. Branches growing toward those lines need a qualified line clearance crew, and we coordinate with Xcel Energy before any work near them.

Another company wanted to top our maple. These guys thinned it, raised the branches over the driveway and explained every cut. It looks like a tree again, not a stump with sticks.

A spring snow dropped a huge limb onto our garage roof late at night. They came out once the snow eased in the morning and lifted it off in sections. Took longer than I hoped, but they told us why.

They helped us pick a tree that will not grow into the power line, planted it at the right depth and left a watering schedule on the fridge. It leafed out well this spring.
